The Star had to push her out.
Reporting is about relationships, especially if you want to break news. I hope her 15 mins of fam was worth it because she gave up the opportunity to cover guys like Mahomes and the Chiefs in what has to be the most exciting season ever. Dumb. Glad she's gone. |

They can underwrite losses there for decades and if it gets the mouse house exposure that they can plow into making money in other divisions, they'd just use ESPN as a loss-leader if they had to. No, this is a sweet-ass gig for Pryor. We win - because she's gone. She wins because she ended up where she'd rather be anyway. ESPN and whatever idiot niche division she's tucked into now will almost certainly be there long after the KC Star has been sold to some other conglomerate and she gets downsized. And I'm sure she's getting a raise out of it. And she'll get to leave this cowtown she clearly loathed from the start. I wish her nothing but bad things. She's just a complete piece of shit.

They have no long-term future. Technology allows for disintermediation. We can contract directly with the leagues to get content. Why cut in a middle man into the profits when you don't have to? ESPN will exist only as long as Disney allows them to lose money by overpaying for TV rights.

She doesn't have the chops to use it as a springboard to bigger things like her predecessors. She didn't have the chops for THIS job; she'd already been peter principled. And yet she STILL managed to make a move to a more stable company that will probably end up trying to shoehorn her into {shudder} television spots and eventually make her just another soldier in their stupid little social justice army. She'll be brought on to further smear Hill anytime an athlete does something untoward (because you KNOW they'll mention it when they're trying to establish her bonafides). In the end she was rewarded for these ****ing shenanigans. I was hoping she'd end up at the goddamn Wichita Eagle or some other such nonsense.

Does Kraft have a manufacturing plant in Pittsburgh?
